The annual sports leader training from Merton was once again a huge success. The children explained, managed and participated in a range of activities, which they will teach to the KS1 children over the next few terms. Well done Year 5 sports leaders!
Wimbledon Bookfest:
Year 5 were very lucky to go and see Tim Peake at Bookfest, which fitted in perfectly with our Earth and Space topic this term. It was a definite highlight and Year 5 loved it!
